Programming & App Development Editorial Review

Overall, customers are satisfied with this book and recommend it as a good beginner and intermediate guide for learning MIT App Inventor 2. The book covers the basics of programming, back-end programming, and various technology plugins. However, some readers note that the book does not cover some important topics like dictionaries, web APIs, and interactive maps and navigations, and that readers may need to supplement their learning with additional materials. Customers appreciate the helpful examples and advice on dealing with errors and saving projects. One major drawback is that the book is printed without color, which can cause confusion when attempting to use the program's color-coding. Nevertheless, customers find the book to be a valuable resource for learning and teaching programming.
